We prepaid this tour and it was certainly worth every penny. We could not have asked for a better guide in Aggie. Historical facts, geographical information, details of life in Sweden and tips on what to do and where to go in Stockholm were delivered in a joyous and entertaining fashion. ‘Crikey’ Aggie you were fab, thank you so much for looking after us and making this tour such fun.
